Bottle . Looks ? this thing start with the bottle itself . even before opening . It is a very clear and light beer , so easy to see trough the bottle whats happening . By even nearly touching it , just lifting it up, you can see the clouds from the yeast rising . The sediment is barely settled . Upon opening, this turns out to be a slow gusher . A little informative talks here and there, learned me slow gushers are caused by a bad season of malts . Not by to much restsugar, as in for instance ’exploding ’bottles . The poured version ; It is physicaly unpossible to leave the yeast at the bottom , thnx to the slow gushing. the sediment is right there amongst the first 5 cl . The result is a rather fuzzy, light blond beer , with pieces ( ! ) floating around . No real foam . Smell is quite bad . And by bad , I mean awefull . Ever forgotten to rinse out a bottle of beer , and found it like a week later ? THAT smell ! Pretty rotten ... The exp, date however, if 1,5 years in the future ... Taste ( yes, Kamikaze-movement of me ! ) is sweet, typical GH sweetness ( which is not a nice thing to begin with ) . Rather thin , bit metallic . some bitterness . Taste is not good, but doable . If only the smell was not this bad, and it would not look like complete barf ....
